If you truly want to get healthy visit any naturopathic doc. They will readily give you recommendations to cut sugar out of your diet. They will also closely monitor your blood levels for a ton of different alarms. It's odd because it's stuff that regular doctors "should" do but instead a regular doctor just prescribes stuff when you get frequent headaches or prescribes different stuff if you have moods. They don't even test your blood for various things unless you ask these days. A naturopath will typically find the hormonal imbalances that is causing all this shit and provide supplements that actually work. Sure they may also recommend a statin, but you will get there far faster than a 9-5 kaiser MD.

>> And the result will always be to put you on a statin. Red yeast rice did wonders for my cholesterol. It is where statins came from in the first place.

  A lot of that is just plain wrong. At this point Wikipedia is often just a battleground for information wars. Naturopaths have been recommending a low sugar diet for like 30 years. So is that quackery?
